About this map

Puddin Ridge and a complex network of high-elevation drainages define this portion of the western slope where the Rio Blanco County and Garfield County line cuts across the landscape. The geography is dominated by deeply incised gulches, including Whiskey Gulch, Enoch Gulch, and Scandard Gulch, which channel seasonal runoff into larger water systems. To the west, Hunter Creek and its branches, East Hunter Creek and West Hunter Creek, carve through the terrain, while the central and eastern sections are defined by the various forks of Willow Creek.

Transportation is limited to rugged routes such as Co Road 87 and Co Road 69, which follow the natural contours of the ridges and valleys. This 2013 survey illustrates a landscape largely shaped by its hydrology and relief, from the namesake Bull Fork to the headwaters of the West Fork Parachute Creek in the southeastern corner. Notable landmarks like Sheep Gulch and Camp Gulch serve as specific points of reference in an otherwise remote expanse of public lands and county borders.
